I have a 18 year old metal garage door, some oxidation and maybe a little rust. Washed it yesterday , made it look worse. Then I sprayed the whole thing with Armor all and it looks great. I am sure this is only temporary. Anybody have a better solution , short of repainting ?
Thanks Mo

Just like reg. Armor All?
You just spray it on and wipe it down like a car dash?
That really worked?

for stuff like that I use an orange degreaser/cleaner in a spray bottle.
zep heavy duty degreaser, works on all sorts of stuff and is non abrasive, gentle on paint.

I bought a cheep airless paint sprayer and repainted mine and the wood around it. Couldn't believe how fast and easy the job was.
